It should be possible but it will be harder. Grab the RPM spec file[1] to see a list of all the dependencies. There are many. Manually install the dependencies (using CPAN for the perl ones) and then extract the source tarball in /usr/local/ then run installer.pl (in pf/) and it should be a good start. If you are willing to try it out and share your findings, I will be more than happy to assist you. Please post your findings and questions on the packetfence-devel mailing list. Have a good one!
